1. About these terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a contract between you ("you", "the customer") and FlatSix Intelligence, a sole-trader business based in the United Kingdom ("we", "us", "our"), operating the website flatsixintelligence.com.

By placing an order, you agree to these Terms. Please read them carefully. If you do not agree with them, do not place an order.

2. The service

FlatSix Intelligence provides an automated pre-purchase analysis service for certain Porsche 911 vehicles advertised on third-party listing websites, including Auto Trader UK (autotrader.co.uk).

When you submit a qualifying listing URL and (for full reports) a vehicle registration mark (VRN), and you pay the applicable fee, our automated system:

  1. Reads the publicly visible content of the listing — text description, specification fields, photos, price, location, seller type, and so on;
  2. (For full reports) queries the DVLA Vehicle Enquiry Service and DVSA MOT History API for the VRN you provided, retrieving data the UK government holds about that vehicle;
  3. Cross-references the listing against the government register data to identify discrepancies (for example, mileage rollback or claims that conflict with DVLA records);
  4. Applies a fixed set of rules covering Porsche 911 generation-specific features, options, known issues, and typical market data;
  5. Produces a PDF report which is delivered to the email address you provided, typically within minutes.

Independence. FlatSix Intelligence is an independent business. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, partnered with, or sponsored by Auto Trader, DVLA, DVSA, Porsche AG, or any vehicle marketplace, manufacturer, or government body. References to these names in our reports and on our website are for identification purposes only.

Auto Trader listings are read from publicly accessible web pages. We have no contractual relationship with Auto Trader. Auto Trader may at any time change its website, listing format, or access rules in ways that interrupt or end our ability to provide reports for listings sourced from their platform.

This service is fully automated. Reports are generated by software and AI without manual human review of each individual report. The service analyses the content of the listing you submit and the official register data we retrieve; it does not involve physical inspection of the vehicle, mechanical testing, or a conversation with the seller.

3. Eligibility and account

To use the service you must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into a legally binding contract. You do not need to register an account — an order is placed by submitting a listing URL, the VRN of the vehicle in the listing (for full reports), and your email address, and paying at checkout.

You are responsible for providing a valid email address you have permission to use. If the email bounces or is undeliverable, we are not obliged to re-attempt delivery beyond reasonable effort.

You are also responsible for providing the correct VRN for the vehicle you intend to analyse. If you submit a VRN that does not correspond to the vehicle in the listing, the report will reflect what the official registers say about the VRN you provided — which may differ from the vehicle being advertised. This is, in fact, one of the discrepancy patterns the report is designed to surface.

4. Placing an order

An order is placed by:

  1. Submitting a valid Auto Trader UK listing URL on the submission form;
  2. Providing the VRN of the vehicle in that listing (full reports only);
  3. Providing your email address;
  4. Acknowledging these Terms and the Privacy Policy via the tickbox at checkout;
  5. Completing payment via Stripe Checkout.

A contract is formed when we confirm payment has been received and your order has been queued for processing. Until then, no contract exists and we are entitled to refuse any order at our discretion — for example, if we suspect fraud or misuse.

Pricing

All prices are in pounds sterling (GBP) and are inclusive of any applicable UK VAT. Prices may change from time to time; the price shown at checkout is the price you pay.

5. Bundle credits

When you purchase a bundle, you receive the corresponding number of report credits (3 or 5) linked to your email address. Each credit:

Unused credits after 30 days are forfeit. We do not refund, extend, or otherwise compensate for unredeemed expired credits, and we do not send expiry reminders — though we may do so in future as a courtesy.

6. Delivery of reports

Reports are delivered by email to the address you provided at checkout. We aim to deliver within minutes of payment, though delivery may be delayed by factors outside our control (for example: high load, service outages at our suppliers, DVLA or DVSA API outages, or changes to the source listing platform).

If you have not received your report within 2 hours of payment, please check your spam/junk folder, and if it is still missing, contact us at hello@flatsixintelligence.com quoting the order reference shown on the thank-you page.

7. Refunds

Consumer cancellation rights

Under the UK Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, you generally have a 14-day right to cancel contracts made online. However, this right does not apply to digital content that has begun to be supplied with your express consent and acknowledgement that the right to cancel will be lost.

By placing an order and ticking the acknowledgement at checkout, you expressly consent to immediate performance of the service and acknowledge that you lose the right to cancel once the report has been generated. This is because our service is delivered within minutes of payment — there is no meaningful cancellation window.

Our refund policy

Because the service is automated and delivered immediately, we do not offer refunds under normal circumstances. This includes (but is not limited to):

We do offer refunds in the following specific circumstances:

How to claim a refund: Email hello@flatsixintelligence.com within 14 days of your order, quoting your order reference (e.g. FS-2026-XXXXX) and the reason. We will review and respond within 5 working days. Approved refunds are processed to the original payment method within 10 working days.

We review refund requests in good faith. If we decline a request we will explain why. These refund terms do not affect your statutory rights under UK consumer law, including the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which entitles you to a remedy if a digital service is not of satisfactory quality, not fit for purpose, or not as described.

8. What the report is — and is not

8a. What the report is

8b. What the report is not

8c. What we analyse, and what we do not verify

The report analyses (i) the content of the listing as it appears on the source website at the time we read it, and (ii) the data returned by official UK government registers in response to a query about the VRN you provided.

We do not visit the vehicle, take new photographs, talk to the seller, verify the seller's identity, or physically confirm that the VRN on the actual car matches the VRN provided in the listing or in your order. Where the report identifies discrepancies between the listing and official records, those flags are surfaced for your further investigation — they are not, by themselves, conclusive proof of any wrongdoing or any particular fact about the vehicle.

The report describes patterns visible in the data we have available. Inspecting the vehicle in person, examining its documents, and where appropriate commissioning a physical pre-purchase inspection by a qualified Porsche specialist, remain your responsibility.

We strongly recommend commissioning a physical pre-purchase inspection by a qualified Porsche specialist before buying any 911. Our report is intended to complement, not replace, such inspection.

9. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

We reserve the right to refuse service, cancel orders, or block access where we reasonably believe these terms have been breached.

10. Limitation of liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for:

Subject to the above:

In plain English: the report is a tool, not a verdict. You are making the purchase decision. We are not responsible for the outcome of that decision, and we are not the mechanic, the seller, or the buyer. The most you can claim from us is a refund of what you have paid us.

11. Our suppliers and your data

To deliver the service we use a number of third-party suppliers, including a payment processor, an email delivery service, an AI provider, a PDF rendering service, a hosting platform, and a file storage service. We also query the DVLA Vehicle Enquiry Service and the DVSA MOT History API.

Where these suppliers process personal data on our behalf, they do so under written agreements (or equivalent terms in their service contracts) that comply with Article 28 of the UK GDPR. The full list of suppliers, what data they receive, where they are based, and the international transfer safeguards in place is set out in our Privacy Policy.

12. Changes to the service or these terms

We may modify the service (features, pricing, supported listings, suppliers used) or these Terms at any time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Changes apply to orders placed after the change is published; they do not apply retroactively to reports already delivered.

Substantive changes will be highlighted on the homepage or communicated by email to existing customers where reasonably possible.

13. Jurisdiction-specific terms and governing law

UK United Kingdom

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them are governed by the laws of England and Wales. You and we both agree that the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any such dispute, except that if you are a consumer resident in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you may bring proceedings in your local courts.

Nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer under UK law, including but not limited to the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013.
